Is There Anything You Can't Do With an XJ Jeep Cherokee?

The current Jeep Cherokee is actually pretty good off-road despite sharing a platform with the Dodge Dart. Considering the current market for crossover SUVs, it's probably the right Cherokee to be selling right now.

But that doesn't mean it's replaced the XJ in our hearts. Oh, no. Its legendary 4.0-liter engine, off-road capability, and abundance of aftermarket parts make it one of our favorite SUVs of all time.
